Council land
We don't have any self-build and custom housebuilding plots for sale.
However, we are working towards provision of plots in line with government guidance and by:
- granting planning permission for schemes that come forward through planning applications, subject to sites being in appropriate locations and suitable development;
- considering the development of self-build and custom housebuilding polices in the emerging Local Plan;
- engaging with Neighbourhood Plan Groups and encouraging them to consider allocation of self-build and custom housebuilding plots in their plans; and
- working with developers to consider inclusion of self-build and custom housebuilding plots in their proposed developments.
Find plots
You can search for self-build or custom housebuilding plots on our planning applications portal.
To find plots on the applications portal you will need to enter the words self-build or custom build in the "keyword" search box on the portal page.
Sites for sale
There may be a privately owned site already for sale so its a good idea to use external plot finding services such as:
- Plotbrowser
- Plotfinder
- Buildstore
- local and online estate agents - advertise some plots of land as suitable for self-build
The Self Build Portal has a number of resources that may help you.
There is guidance on planning a self-build home on the Planning Portal.
